bought marconi again at 617p[624p spread bet]...fantastic stock to day trade at the moment....has long as you're long ;-)

[maestro.] 06/1/2004 22:11

stew...i don't think i will get shafted by the stocks i've bought...Thus is rock solid and so is TBI unless there is another 9/11...Bookham maybe is abit risky but possible massive returns if successful...possible takeover target imho and so is Matalan and Kingfisher...i'm expecting to be 3 0r 4k richer by end of month..
predictions:
TBI taken out for 90p=2k profit..have another 50pound/point with city index
THUS TO BE 40p by end of month =2k profit
Marconi will be 700p by end of month..have 15pound a point with Cantors= 1200quid
easy money if you know how....

Maestro

Do you spreadbet blancmange?

[stewjames] 06/1/2004 11:22

Hmmm. Doing better than I first realised...you're exposed to about 20K of shares so you've made 2% or so this year, but I still maintain your success is mainly down to the rising markets. Are you prepared for a protracted period of falls or even sideways movement? Also, do you realise that with non-guaranteed stops, you'll potentially get shafted in the event of bad news? Do you take account of this risk at all when opening positions?

opened bookham at 50 quid a point at 140p....expect 150p by late afternoon for another 500 quid profit...stop loss 130p

[maestro.] 06/1/2004 11:08

stew...open positions maybe showing a loss but i've banked 2.9k since december 1st and its only a question of time before TBI AND THUS rocket to wipe out my current balance loss

Err, yes, except your open positions are showing a loss, are they not?

Correction. (To follow)

Maestro,

Your trading wisdom deserves a much wider audience. A couple of contacts of mine are editors at the Sunday Times. I'll have a word with them at the next lodge meeting. Good luck with it.

[belabed] 05/1/2004 21:17

How about 100 quid a point on Ronson?

[boobly] 05/1/2004 21:16

.......... L O L !

[le ripper] 05/1/2004 21:13

Whats your balance now maester ? I'm dying to see this minus 68 quid turn into 2 grand.

[maestro.] 05/1/2004 11:30

bought Kingfisher today 10 pound a point long at 295p...got in a little too early but bid speculation could drive this one to 300p plus

Personally I go for ivestments around £4000-5000 mark, so if a share is 3-4p I will buy 100,000..Profit/Loss £1000 per 1p, stocks around 7-8p, buy 50,000...profit/loss £500 per penny, and stocks like 60p-80p, just buy 5000 shares, so profit/loss is about £50 per penny...All depends on how much you have to invest and how much you can afford to lose. Obviously there is risks with losing the lot but if you have a company with prospects and you believe in it then you are okay, I dont buy large amounts on someones say-so on bulletin boards. My largest holding is in CMS webview, got over £12,000 invested in them, but bought in four blocks of 50,000...Good luck!!!!

[banter] 03/1/2004 10:35

what amount do you guys/girls invest in one go.

when i first started it was 500, then 1000 and now its 2000

with dealing costs etc 2000 invested goes up 10% 170 profit, where as with 500 you only make 20.

[topinfo] 03/1/2004 00:18

decent price, I sold out about 2 weeks ago at 3.4 I think after buying at about 3.1p, made a few hundred coz I had a 100,000 shares but could have waited a couple of weeks and got a bit more, 3.7 would have been nice. Yeah have a look at KTS, there are a few threads and one or two have the charts on, but no real long term charts. On iii you can see the 3 year chart and it is near enough at bottom of trendline. DYOR but for any stock to catch the eye of analysts recommending it as a 2004 stock it must be half decent!!! ZZZZZZ Now see u again Mate.

[responsible lad] 03/1/2004 00:13

Topinfo,

I sold OMH at 3.7p. I paid 3.35p for them on Wednesday. The first time I have ever made a profit day trading OMH since with OMH I go by the number of buys versus sells and there is always a mean seller that destroys the smallest of rises, even 6% ones. I will check out KTS, that is not on my stockwatch list but AGT is.


Kind Regards
Stephen

Knowing...Yeah to be honest was going to buy them as well, they have been tipped all over the place and look interesting..I couldnt get in at any point with a decent spread so left them for today but will be back on Monday to have a look. Im into DDD and they often follow SPS so hopefully can do well with both!!

[the knowing] 02/1/2004 23:59

Top did you see the recomendations SPS today ? Worth having a read of the thread.

[topinfo] 02/1/2004 23:54

Well done mate...I think WHOG closed at 6p sell if Im correct so you got out at a good price...Out of interest what price you get for OMH, I had them up until a few weeks ago but sold out. they havent risen again have they without me on the ride...I bought AGT today and a company called KNOWLEDGE TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS (KTS)..Worth having a good luck at as they were tipped as 2004 stock but I have already been looking at them recently..I only bought a small holding £1600, about 15,000 shares just in case but of course DYOR...

[responsible lad] 02/1/2004 23:39

Yes I sold out at 7.58p. I waited for the price to fall back to prove they were not just going to keep on rising. I then put the money into LDC and lost £100 then moved into ASR at 3.7 and 4.15p, threw also selling Osmetech for a £40 gain. I ended the day up £100, now holding all Avoinic shares hoping to make it big time on Monday. I looked into AGT, there a good bet, may buy on Monday.
